Hey Abhi, love the heat in your “application layer is melting” piece. Bold stuff. But here’s my friendly countertrail:
If the UI’s melting, maybe it’s ‘cause we outsourced too much meaning to systems that don’t feel. Not every stack needs to vanish into fog. Some of us still want to see what we’re shaping. Not outta fear—outta fidelity.
An agent that whispers to my data might be smart. But a well-worn button that anchors shared understanding? That’s sacred tech.
Invisible doesn’t always mean evolved. Sometimes it just means unaccountable.

Interfaces aren’t dead. They’re ritual spaces.
And trust still needs a place to land.

Not just the application layer. It’s challenging the entire premise of why platforms have existed.
